Management comprises of three treatments: nitrogen fertilizer, fungicide application and water availability.

  • Nitrogen fertilizer treatment includes two application levels: high (HN: 220 kg N ha-1) and low (LN: 110 kg N ha-1), both include soil mineral nitrogen (0–90 cm) measured in early spring.

  • Fungicide treatment contains two application levels: with (WF) or without (NF) fungicide application.

  • Water availability treatment has three levels: rain-fed (RF), irrigated (IR) and rainout-shelter treated (RO).

In total, there are 9 managements, while it is incomplete and depends on the location and years (Figure 4, Table 1).
